IRI Rules and Team Invitation List

[Chris Fultz]

if you read the book "The Tipping Point", it relates heavily to the IRI "growth". Suddently, everyone wanted to attend IRI because everyone was attending IRI.

We reached a limit and determined that the speed of signing up was not a good way to manage the event, and went to the apply / invite process.

The event stays strong because we stay focused on a few things, have an incredible volunteer crew, awesome teams, and a few unique activities that makes it more than just a competition on the field.

It's fun to do this type of thing during practice matches (like putting 1114, 2056 and 1241 together at GTR West and seeing if they can mange to clear the field of every disc). IRI will probably rovide just as much fun mixing and matching matches.

How about having a skills challenge? Most accurate full court shooter, most accurate cycler. Give teams (that are willing to) 1:00 minute to show their best. Just thinking outside the box.

They did this at the Indiana state championship and it was cool but I'm not sure about it time wise.

There is something like that at Texas Robot Roundup as well. It would take a very long time with 72 teams though.

Is anyone going to be live streaming IRI? I would be willing to help out on the technical side as much as I can if anyone needs help.

Forgive me if this has been brought up already, but did Team Titanium apply? I know they certainly have the skill to play at IRI and I was really looking forward to getting the chance to play with them but I was surprised to not see them on the list.
